    Hematocrit before even touching a steroid was 52 correct. So up a bit but well within the margin of error. Only have done 1 cycle before. That was test400 for 12 weeks last summer

    I should also add that both my parents test high for hematocrit / RBC levels and do not work out and are in their 60s. I live at high altitude and even my bloodwork at 16 years old never touching a weight showed high levels of these 3 that I had a doctor look at

    curious, do you live at high elevation , or any possibility of you having untreated sleep apnea or other breathing problems ?

    Yes haha, I just edited my post to add that in. In addition, both my parents have tested high on these same levels (rbc, hematocrit, hemoglobin) and do not workout. I live in high altitude and my family immigrated from a mountain region in Russia so I beleive it is genetic. A doctor looked into sleep apnea and found I did not have that.
